Was in the process of migrating form 'Legacy Rules' to Rule 5.
Created a really simple rule:-
Getting an error - Broken Rule
The second action Turn on is not working.
Selecting 'Select Actions to Run' you get
How do you edit this or attempt to resolve the Broken Action is it just a matter of somehow it was corrupted and you should delete and start all over again?
I have had that happen as well in earlier releases. Don't try to edit the broken rule. Just delete the broken rule line and then add whatever line you need. I haven't tried in the latest release but in previous releases if you tried to edit the broken rule it corrupt the editor and you had to start over.

Troubling that is Broken when it is so simple and straightforward and had just been created.
The irony was that I was re-writing the same rule as I had started migrating Apps from Rule 4 to Rule 5 and had to re-create it again after it Broke.
Looks like another reason to hold off migrating Rule 4 to Rule 5 until it is fully implemented and working.
What was the Action you tried to put in that ended up Broken? The Broken Action logic did not change from Rule-4.1 to Rule 5.0. It usually is the result of having removed something from a rule that renders the rule, well, broken.

There were only two actions, turn off then turn back on.
Not sure why that confused it.
There is some cruft apparently. Simply delete the broken action.
So the solution for the error is to not do the thing that causes the error by trying to edit the broken action, but that means I just spent like 20 minutes creating a very complicated rule that is now hopelessly corrupted. Darn it.
There is no way to delete a broken action sometimes... It would be great if a future update includes a button "Delete all broken actions" or similar.
